HOW
DARE THOSE JEWS DEFEND
THEMSELVES! …
IS
SUSAN LOSIN' HILLARY'S JOB? …REMINDER:
BUSINESS DOES NOT
PAY
TAXES

Here
we go again with the perpetual Arab whine …
“Those
mean, evil Israelis are shooting back at us just because we fire
rockets at them, blow them up with suicide bombers and kidnap
them!
How dare they defend themselves when all we want to do is
exterminate
them?!

If,
as Barack Obama insists, UN Ambassador Susan Rice had nothing to
do
with the Benghazi murders, then responsible Big Media reporters
should be asking, “Then why was she sent out to lie about it?”
But
they don't. We know why, of course. Most are unprincipled whores
for
the Obama leftist agenda. To them, Stalin was just a
misunderstood
agrarian reformer.
Meantime,
the question looms: Will Obama still nominate Susan Rice to
replace
Hillary as Secretary of State? Or will he name the lugubrious
John
Kerry?

Word
that many restaurants are planning to raise prices because of
the
costs imposed by Obamacare should come as no surprise to any
rational
person – a designation, of course, that excludes liberals.
Prof.
Arthur Laffer enunciated the principle in the most basic terms
when
he said, “Business doesn't pay taxes; business collects
taxes for the government.”Silly
people, of course, are infatuated with the idea that the
government
should force businesses to pay more taxes, blissfully unaware
that in
order to operate, those businesses must necessarily pass that
cost
along to the customer.

Stunned as you may be by the fact that a majority of
U.S. voters chose to reward a bungling Marxist president with a
second term in face of the facts that the economy is a shambles,
foreign policy a sick joke and every driver faces the
more-than-doubled price of gasoline with every visit to a pump,
be assured that the fools who chose this path are being and will
continue to be punished for their stupidity, even if it does
keep those government freebies coming. At least for awhile.
Alas, so will the rest of us pay for
the racist voting by black Americans (whatever happened to "the
content of our character rather than the color of our skin?")
and foolish younger people, many of them women, who are so
ill-informed or outright dumb that they believed such nonsense
as "Romney will prohibit birth control." And we mustn't forget
the freeloaders.
Here is another manifestation of a failed
economy. Last week I took a driving trip that, although not
long, did put me on three different interstate highways normally
heavily used by vacationers. Except for the truckers doing their
jobs, I drove for miles with only a few cars to be seen. Gee,
you think maybe the price of gasoline might be the reason?
Regarding those truckers ... the manager of
our local supermarket -- part of a major chain -- advised us
that big price increases are coming next month, dictated by the
high cost of fuel to run those trucks that deliver the
groceries. So much for city-dwelling socialists who think
they're immune to gasoline prices because "I use public
transportation."
The prediction attributed to Norman Thomas,
who ran for president in a half-dozen times as an overt
socialist, has come to pass: "The American people will never
knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism'
they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until
one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how
it happened."
Only now, of course, the Marxists
prefer to be called "progressives" rather than liberals.

"The
key
point about Barack Obama is not that he's a secret Muslim Kenyan
Commie or whatever. Whether he was born in Honolulu or Mombasa
or
Stockholm or up on Planet Zongo, what matters ... is that in his
general worldview he is entirely
typical
and perfectly
representative
of tens upon tens of millions of Americans. Tuesday's majority
confirmed that. They don't need a 'conspiracy': They agree with
him.
That's
the problem." -- columnist Mark Steyn

Does
it not seem like a perversion of government that highly-placed
officials with life-and-death responsibilites have come to rely
upon
“talking points” not only for public statements but even in
responding to congressional questions where truth is both vital
and
necessary?
The
outstanding example, of course, is Petraeus's lies about the
Benghazi
murders being caused by a video when he knew damned well it was
a
terrorist attack unrelated to such nonsense. A former general
and
head of the CIA had to rely on “talking points?” Bull-bleep!

We
are indebted to Dan Mitchell (Townhall.com) for calling attention
to
some of the hare-brained ideas of bureaucrats on the public
payroll
who have far too much time on their hands …
A
Rhode Island boy got in trouble for bringing toy soldiers to
school.
A student in San Diego got in trouble for
making a motion detector for a science project, simply because
someone decided it resembled a bomb.
A Florida student was expelled for having a toy
gun on school property.
We
also have regulations in Maryland governing the application of
sunscreen at summer camps.
And proposals in Seattle to require life vests
on swimmer who are more than five feet from shore.

I
am neither the first nor last to lament the homogenization of
radio.
As a longtime – and quite successful – veteran of the endless
radio wars, I'm well acquainted with the economics of the
industry,
which include the increasing reliance upon syndicated programs;
push
a button (or have it done by automation) and there's your
programming, usually cheap and often free for simply carrying
the
included commercials. From a management standpoint, it's a
no-brainer.
From the listener's
standpoint it means sameness from one end of the dial to the
other,
from coast-to-coast.
I am particularly
sympathetic to truckers and others who drive a lot at night.
Sunset
to sunrise once brought in a wonderland of wildly varied radio
made
possible by the nighttime skywave effect of AM signals bouncing
off
the ionosphere and bringing in far-away stations with an endless
array of programs.
The all-night shows
ranged from American Airlines' "Music 'til Dawn" on major
CBS stations, all with different hosts ... to rock music on WABC
or
WLS ... to the sugary tones of Franklin McCormick on WGN ... to
Jazzbo Collins on KSFO ... to Long John Nebel and his cast of
weirdos
on WOR ... to "Moonglow with Martin" on WWL.
The programs were as varied as the call letters: KFI, KOA, KSL,
WHO,
KFAB, WCCO, WNBC, WLS, KMPC, WSM, WSB, WOAI, WJJD, Mexican
border
stations beginning with "X" carrying people like Wolfman
Jack and on and on.
Those voices out of
the night sparked my childhood interest in radio. I regret their
loss, and I'm sorry for the truckers and other folk whose
headlights remind other
drivers that they're not entirely alone in the darkness on the
Interstates. They are deprived of the rich variety that once
filled
the airwaves.
I have nothing against
"Coast-to-Coast AM," but must it be on every unimaginative
owner's station? In fact, in today's corporate radio world, I
wonder
how many top broadcasting executives ever listen to their own
stations. Few, I
suspect.

Cindy
Adams' (NY Post) description of the sort of women who lure aging
males (generals, politicos, etc.) into career-destroying liaisons
…
“Some
toxic bitch ignited by money/rank/position often zaps many a
worthy.
She’s younger, thinner, more nubile than the weary burdened body
he’s lain next to for decades, and like a circus aerialist or
contortionist, there’s no position she can’t assume. Her animal
magnetism renders him powerless.”

Today's
message to media folk (print division): The expression is “TOE the
line,” not “TOW the line.” Likely origin is the military, when
troops were ordered to form orderly ranks in straight lines with
toes
on a marked line. The larger meaning is to conform.
